Nonmercaptalbumin as an oxidative stress marker in Parkinson's and PARK2 disease.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To investigate the oxidized albumin ratio, which is the redox ratio of human nonmercaptalbumin (HNA) to serum albumin (%HNA), as a biomarker in idiopathic Parkinson's disease (iPD) and related neurodegenerative disorders.

Methods

This prospective study enrolled 216 iPD patients, 15 patients with autosomal recessive familial PD due to parkin mutations (PARK2), 30 multiple system atrophy (MSA) patients, 32 progressive nuclear palsy (PSP) patients, and 143 healthy controls. HNA was analyzed using modified high-performance liquid chromatography and was evaluated alongside other parameters.

Results

iPD and PARK2 patients had a higher %HNA than controls (iPD vs. controls: odds ratio (OR) 1.325, P < 0.001; PARK2 vs. controls: OR 1.712, P < 0.001). Even iPD patients at an early Hoehn & Yahr stage (I and II) showed a higher %HNA than controls. iPD patients had a higher %HNA than MSA and PSP patients (iPD vs. MSA: OR 1.249, P < 0.001, iPD vs. PSP: OR 1.288, P < 0.05). When discriminating iPD patients from controls, %HNA corrected by age achieved an AUC of 0.750; when discriminating iPD patients from MSA and PSP patients, an AUC of 0.747 was achieved. Furthermore, uric acid, an antioxidant compound, was decreased in iPD patients, similar to the change in %HNA.

Interpretation

%HNA was significantly increased in iPD and PARK2 patients compared with controls, regardless of disease course and severity. Oxidative stress might be increased from the early stages of iPD and PARK2 and play an important role in their pathomechanisms.

Project description:Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by progressive motor impairment attributed to progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra (SN) pars compacta. In addition to an accumulation of iron, there is also an increased production of reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (ROS/RNS) and inflammatory markers. These observations suggest that iron dyshomeostasis may be playing a key role in neurodegeneration. However, the mechanisms underlying this metal-associated oxidative stress and neuronal damage have not been fully elucidated. To determine peripheral levels of iron, ferritin, and transferrin in PD patients and its possible relation with oxidative/nitrosative parameters, whilst attempting to identify a profile of peripheral biomarkers in this neurological condition. Forty PD patients and 46 controls were recruited to compare serum levels of iron, ferritin, transferrin, oxidative stress markers (superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), nitrosative stress marker (NOx), thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), non-protein thiols (NPSH), advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP), ferric reducing ability of plasma (FRAP) and vitamin C) as well as inflammatory markers (NTPDases, ecto-5'-nucleotidase, adenosine deaminase (ADA), ischemic-modified albumin (IMA) and myeloperoxidase). Iron levels were lower in PD patients, whereas there was no difference in ferritin and transferrin. Oxidative stress (TBARS and AOPP) and inflammatory markers (NTPDases, IMA, and myeloperoxidase) were significantly higher in PD, while antioxidants FRAP, vitamin C, and non-protein thiols were significantly lower in PD. The enzymes SOD, CAT, and ecto-5'-nucleotidase were not different among the groups, although NOx and ADA levels were significantly higher in the controls. Our data corroborate the idea that ROS/RNS production and neuroinflammation may dysregulate iron homeostasis and collaborate to reduce the periphery levels of this ion, contributing to alterations observed in the pathophysiology of PD.
